[John]

Stranger in a bear.

[Dale]

Stranger.

[John]

Okay.

[Dale]

She went into a. Oh, you said that. She told me the knee was coming straight for his head and I'm like, where the hell did you learn that? Okay, you got a chance, you know.

[Brady]

[Dale]

I used to be. I was a good bender.

[Brady]

Am I wrong?

[John]

You'll get more venom.

[Brady]

Right. So he basically was telling her, I don't think you're actually drinking that. Somebody's selling you something. That is. It's snake oil.

[Dale]

What's in that little bottle over there? Don't you take a little snake?

[Brady]
